ICS1893
Document Type: Data Sheet Document Stage: Release
3.3-V 10Base-T/100Base-TX Integrated PHYceiver™
General
The ICS1893 is a low-power, physical-layer device (PHY) that supports the ISO/IEC 10Base-T and 100Base-TX Carrier-Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) Ethernet standards. The ICS1893 architecture is based on the ICS1892. The ICS1893 supports managed or unmanaged node, repeater, and switch applications.
The ICS1893 incorporates digital signal processing (DSP) in its Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) sublayer. As a result, it can transmit and receive data on unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) category 5 cables with attenuation in excess of 24 dB at 100 MHz. With this ICS-patented technology, the ICS1893 can virtually eliminate errors from killer packets.
